Republicans, the Constitution, and making "The Law of the Land"

by: Hopeful

Wed Mar 30, 2011 at 01:17:23 PM EDT



Ah, the Constitution. We heard so much about it last election season. It was read on the floor of the House in January. Tea Party activists gave Frank LoBiondo pop quizzes. Jon Runyan said he never heard of the Constitution, but only after being safely elected. (Okay, that one's a joke.) Now Eric Cantor explains the Republican budget plan:

What this bill says is it reiterates again the deadline, and that the Senate should act before the deadline, and that's what the American people are expecting. The bill then says if the Senate does not act, then H.R. 1 would be the law of the land.

Getting rid of the Senate and the President certainly makes passing laws easier. I look forward to seeing how many New Jersey Republicans vote for this bill.
